We make Sunny D, we have just gone back to a recipe that is very similar to the old stuff, so look out for that, the reason it changed was that the Food Standard people said there was too much sugar in it lolQuote:

when you get your benefits approved, a van pulls up outside with a trailer.... the van is the sky bloke & the trailer has 1 enormous tv, a collection of knock off designer sportswear, 10 gallons of cider, 3000 cheap fags and a small filthy child with snot everywhere...... well, they seem to in hinckley....
no chance would i do without Sky, wouldn't be able to record F1 when im at work for a start lolQuote:

yawnfest ? you been watching last year on repeat ? lol apart from vettel's few in a row its been excellent imo, last race in Austin was epic imo
Has been a great season imo. Shame Ze German is gonna win again but there is no doubting he is a good driver. As for watching on sky, even if I had it I would rather watch it on the beeb.
I've had access to Sky Go to watch the F1 on there, I tried it and couldnt stand it even for qualifying, back to the BBC for fantastic coverage even if some of it is 'only' highlights' (feels like they only skip 1 lap though lol )
BBC is better i agree, i always watch it on there if its live, they have had a few years to refine their coverage
Sky is a bit poor imo, but it will get better, the bloke commentating with Brundle is a complete tool tho, always shouting and talking over team radio, he needs to go lol Georgie Thompson makes up for it being a bit crap tho lol
on the beeb:
quali takes 1hr
race usually takes 1 1/2 hrs, except for monaco...
post race twaddle takes 20 mins..
then eddie jordan takes some lsd & tries to explain his version of the race..10 mins..
job jobbed
but on sky.... they keep on at it, describing some infinitessimally small thing to drag it out to the next ad break.......
edd, i have fallen asleep watching three races this year....
valencia.... it was a 2hr drivers parade
monaco wasn't up to much tbh
what surprised me was how good the abu dhabi race was this year....
and the austin race was rather good..funny how making a decent track adds to the fun
Virgin gave me Sky Sports free for a weekend.
It was an F1 weekend.
After starting to watch the Grand Prix on Sky, it got turned over to the BBC.
Saved me considering spending the extra for SkyF1, the coverage is not up to BBCs standards at all.
As for the season, it's been the best for a few years.
yeah, but its a shame its down to tyre management & the drs thing...
i actually miss the balls out racing like when hakkinen went head to head with schumi.....the drivers might get 10 full speed laps in a weekend now... its a bit like sportscar racing now, you hear the pit radio telling the driver they are on schedule now.....which means they are driving to a set time limit per lap...
got one of these clicky that should help with the garage light problem :d
NiceQuote:

they seem expensive but write in 'PS-L3RK' in ebay ;), there going for over 200 quid
I bet you could do well with 5 M of LED tape light and a 12V supply lol
More like planned Fuel usage, not time limit per lap.Quote:

ive got a led head light aswell nice bright white light, great light to work with but my eyes dont like it after a few hours they feel tired :/
No it's not, running an engine on "full power" will be on it's richest setting so use more fuel. If the tyres have no grip, with the increase in performance, it doesn't mean you'll get quicker laps.Quote:

they spend friday testing the life of the tyres & the fuel usage.. they then calculate all sorts of factors to work out their race pace & fuel loading..
it used to be the driver working it out as he went along, and, yes, people cooked their tyres & ran out of fuel, but that was part of the racing.
Securing larger premises to get through this back log of work.
Large unit = me very happy lol
Seeing inside the unit of a lad I know, and admiring a mk2 2dr Escort Mexico on a spit, Caspian blue ex-concourse XR3, genuine Gartrac RS1600i ex-works car, LHD uber clean 3.0 24v Cosworth kitted 4i drifter and mk1 Escort Mexico running a YB.
He has other things too, but they were the pick of the bunch for me.
His daily drie mk2 Escort with 2.0 Zetec is pretty cool too. :d

going on wikipedia & correcting some wrong info about our local town that was put on by some pillock who thinks the council will rename the area he lives on to 'saxon-paddock' because the road thru the estate is called paddock way & he's decided to say saxon archaeology was found there.... the problem was that our firm actually did the dig.. saw what came out the ground and read the report, there was no saxon stuff.....he also posted a link to his website that called everyone in our town names for a multitude of reasons.. it is now correct & verified, so i can't wait for the stink from it.....i can be very spiteful at times
this bloke is our version of those idiots who buy a house near an airport & then complain about the noise..
Having fun with the car in the snow on my lunch break:)
